Diploma in Cybersecurity

Diploma in Cybersecurity is an original Mai Studies programme in cyber security. Over 12 weeks and roughly 120 guided hours you work through recorded classes, written notes, practical activities, knowledge checks and assessed tasks marked against a published rubric with an 80% pass mark. All material is written in-house. Mai Studies is independent: no official examination content, question bank, recording or branding from any certification body is reproduced, and completion leads to a Mai Studies completion certificate rather than a regulated or accredited qualification.
